Problem
●
If the unit is stopped and then immediately started again, the com-
pressor will not operate for about 3 minutes, in order to prevent
fuse blowouts.
●
Whenever the Power Supply Plug is disconnected and then re-
connected to a power outlet, the protection circuit will operate for
about 3 minutes, preventing unit operation during that period.
●
During operation and immediately after stopping the unit, the
sound of water flowing in the air conditioner’s piping may be
heard. Also, noise may be particularly noticeable for about 2 to 3
minutes after starting operation (sound of coolant flowing).
●
During operation, a slight squeaking sound may be heard. This is
the result of minute expansion and contraction of the front cover
due to temperature changes.
●
During Heating operation, a sizzling sound may be heard occasional.
This sound is produced by the Automatic Defrosting operation.
●
Some smell may be emitted from the indoor unit. This smell is
the result of room smells (furniture, tobacco, etc.) which have
been taken into the air conditioner.
●
During Cooling or Dry operation, a thin mist may be seen emitted
from the indoor unit. This results from the sudden Cooling of room
air by the air emitted from the air conditioner, resulting in con-
densation and misting.
●
During Heating operation, the outdoor unit’s fan may stop, and
steam may be seen rising from the unit. This is due to Automatic
Defrosting operation.
●
When Heating operation is started, fan speed is temporarily very
low, to allow internal parts to warm up.
●
During Heating operation, if the room temperature rises above
the thermostat setting, the outdoor unit will stop, and the indoor
unit will operate at very low fan speed. If you wish to warm the
room further, set the thermostat for a higher setting.
●
During Heating operation, the unit will temporarily stop opera-
tion (between 7 and 15 minutes) as the Automatic Defrosting mode
operates. During Automatic Defrosting operation, the OPERATION
Indicator Lamp will flash.
●
The fan may operate at very low speed during Dry operation or
when the unit is monitoring the room’s temperature.
●
During SUPER QUIET operation, the fan will operate at very low
speed.
●
In the monitor AUTO operation, the fan will operate at very low
speed.
●
During Heating operation, water may be produced from the out-
door unit due to Automatic Defrosting operation.
●
After approximately 400 hours of Air Cleaning Mode use, the AIR
CLEAN Indicator Lamp will begin to flash slowly (as shown in the
figure). When this occurs, please stop the system, remove the
mains socket and carry out maintenance on the dust collecting
unit's air filter.
●
After approximately 500 hours of Air Cleaning Mode use, the AIR
CLEAN Indicator Lamp will begin to flash quickly (as shown in
the figure). At this point, Air Cleaning will stop functioning. Please
stop the system, remove the mains socket and carry out mainte-
nance on the dust collecting unit's air filter.

FUNCTION
In the event of a malfunction (burning smell, etc.), immediately stop operation, turn off the elec-

Merely turning off the unit’s power switch will not completely disconnect the unit from the power
source. Always be sure to turn off the electrical breaker or disconnect the power supply plug to
ensure that power is completely off.
